JDQ Systems Inc. has partnered with the American Society for Quality (ASQ) Vancouver Section to engage with the three spheres of helping, learning and profiting in an innovative way. JDQ’s team of quality experts will lead the ASQ Vancouver Section’s Six Sigma Special Interest Group in realizing significant improvement to Westcoast Family Resources Society’s processes.
Westcoast Family Resources Society has been serving families in crisis throughout the British Columbian Lower Mainland since 1984. Its more than 50 full and part time workers deliver both outreach and group parenting programs that strengthen the family and help alleviate the suffering caused by abuse and trauma; substance abuse; poverty; mental and physical health challenges and other serious family problems.
This donation is part of JDQ’s 3Spheres of Reciprocity™ initiative. 3Spheres is a philosophy and model for healthy, optimal, and successful community engagement. It is a paradigm for social responsibility and cooperative relationships grown from the fundamental understanding that we can all thrive by participating simultaneously in the spheres of Helping, Learning and Profiting. Ultimately, it is a model for other small and medium sized businesses to share best practices with each other and the community.
The American Society for Quality (ASQ) is the world's leading authority on quality. With more than 100,000 members, this professional organization advances learning and knowledge exchange to improve business results, and to create better workplaces and communities worldwide. The ASQ’s Community Good Works program provides the opportunity for quality professionals to help others and benefit the community.
